Can we reverse "command" and "ctrl" keys ?

Hi. Is it possible to reverse "command" and "ctrl" keys ? I am used to PC keyboards and I really hates this "command" key that looks totally useless to me. For instance, when I do a copy / paste, I always confuse myself with the ctrl and command key. I would like to set up the command key as what "ctrl" does in mac and set up the key "ctrl" to what "command" does normally. In other words, I want to transform my apple keyboard in a windows keyboard. Can we do that ?

System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Modifier Keys

You should be able to make the Command key a control key, and the control key a command key.

If you get and use KeyRemap4MacBook, you can make a lot of other keyboard modifications, such as a "Forward Delete" key (which seems to be popular with the Windows group).
